|
|
Hi All, Have been going through postings on tyres, And as mine are getting close to slicks. they are gona be replaced in the next few days. Colways A/T seem to be a good tyre, You Guys speak well of them. Found this site...
http://www.sowdentyres.co.uk/index.html
Anyone got them there??????...prices and delivery seem to be a good deal.
Any feedback appreciated
Cheerzzzzzzzzzzzz..........................Nuke |

i have colways a/t's on front, and bfg a/t's on rear - had em both for 1 year - use is low milage, but probably true 70/30 road/off-road ...colways are ok, but show more sign of wear etc than the bfg's - but they are good for cheapies!! -- dedicated off-roaders use em all the time .... if you have the money though, i would invest in best tyres possible, they are the only thinkg keeping you in touch with the road ... for this, bfg's get my vote ...

got to agree with mark, colways okay for offroad but if you do lots of high speed motorway driving and still want the a/t pattern go for the bfg's, have heard of balancing problems with colways, my stepdad has them on his isuzu bighorn and they seem to be wearing down a lot faster than my bfg's! and i do 3 times the milage he does! |

Nuke,.. before you go and splash out, give Barry,s tyres in Gateshead a ring, tell him Ken from the Beeb said you would do him a good deal.
Hope this helps.

Ken
